Dr. Averbach presents as a very knowledgeable professional and continued to exhibit professionalism throughout. I would describe this office staff as busy yet effective. This doctor emphasize the importance of every aspect of the process. Dr. Averbach is one of the best! This is why I choose him to complete my surgery. Posted on 08/19/2008 |

I absolutely love Dr. Averbach! I thought when I first met him, he was kind of standoff-ish! But since that time, he is available for me anytime via email and will respond sometimes within minutes as he just did but always within the same day! Even on weekends! I love Dr. Averbach!

I first met him at the orientation for the surgery and he seemed okay. I later met him for my first consultation and he was very open and constantly asked me if I had any questions. Made me feel like he would be there even for the dumb questions.
The office staff have been wonderful. They always have a smile on there face and my first time there this one cute old lady that works there stoped me and asked me about myself and what kind of surgery I wanted. She was so sweet.
Well I was treated like a princess. The only problem I have is when they were transporting me from recovery to my room the ran me into the walls, the elevator doors and then the doors of my room. Okay I know you may hit one thing but come one when the patients starts crying from you hurting them. Chill out. My...

I met Dr. Averbach at one of his seminars at St. Agnes Hospital in Baltimore and I immediately thought he was the one. I then scheduled a consultation in his office a few days later. His office staff was wonderful and very helpful and organized. His office has a very structured pre and post surgery program to include nutritional guidelines, psychiatric evaluation and support group attendance recommendations. After meeting with him, I felt more at ease about risks and and anticipated complications. I am confident he has the surgcial competence to perform this surgery on me. Posted on 07/20/2008 |

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Averbach. He is an amazing man with an amazing talent. I can not say enough kind words about him. He was very supportive of me since the day I met him and answered any and all questions. The morning of surgery I was very nervous and he was first to assure me everything will be alright and he would take good care of me, and that he did. Posted on 07/15/2008 |

Dr. Averbach is a wonderful surgeon. I noted that some comments related to his being strictly business. I first felt he was almost shy, but now I feel very comfortable with him--he is so encouraging and kind. The entire staff in his office is wonderful and accessible. I was also particularly helped by being able to attend a no-obligation orientation seminar, so my husband and I could learn about gastric bypass vs. lap band. This was extremely helpful, and as a result, I selected lap band. I really feel he helped save my life. Paula Matuskey Posted on 06/01/2008 |

He's a very serious person.. It didn't change, because I knew that this was a serious step I was about to take and I was glad that Dr. Averbach was a no nonsense type of person...This a life choice, not a game...Everbody to me was okay...they could have been a little more friendly...I like Dr. Averbach...have all good things to say about him...at least 4 right now...He explains all the end and outs of the surgery and the importance of the aftercare...On a scale from 1 to 10, I rate him a 9 1/2...His surgical competence impressed me the most...

Dr Averbach is the best surgeon around. I was originally scheduled to have surgery with Dr Magneson at Bay View and decided I didnt want to be cut so I researched and changed drs. Dr Averback is a serious dr and wants you to take this surgery very seriously (like you should) His staff is VERY friendly and they all went out of their way after surgery when I accidentally got pregnant at only about 6-7w post op! OOPS! They offer support groups also. I highly reccommend Dr Averbach to anyone who is thinking about having surgery. Posted on 04/24/2008 |
